Turkey Rod Run Daytona (whos going???)

I'll be there again - hopefully my Merc will be too. It definitely takes more than a day to really see everything. Is there going to be a HAMB meet and greet this year? Last year my brother and I wandered around for hours trying to find the right spot but never did.

 

So, what makes this year any different??

 

sooooo you leaving the the great north to come south?

 

Well... I was actually hoping to find the HAMB tent this time rather than giving up in desperation. Or are you making some kind of off color joke here?

 

well, my thought train was leading toward.....typical male, won't ask for directions.......

Yes, if the boss will give me three days off without pay, that Monday, Tuesday and Wed of Thanksgiving week, I'll be there. As of now I am out of paid vacation time for the rest of the year.......I feel the flu coming on...can someone please pass me a tissue.

 

The HAMB tent easy to find, the right spot well................

 

Not so hard to find if you just ask for directions

 

The HAMB tent or "the right spot"? HAMB tent no problem

 

My wife and I have went the last two years. Hopefully we'll be going again this year and driving her 54 Chevy 210. ( The last two years we've driven my 72 Chevy pickup)

Here's a link to pics I posted from last year.

If I can get a few finances in place I will go for a day.

 

Same here.Billetproof may take my dough this year.

 

I was referring to asking for directions to "the right spot" if you have trouble finding it.

"Hey buddy, what spot number are you????........I'm looking for spot #910."

 

back to who's going and what about some hambers getting together for a beer or so

 

Beers, get with TheKid49 he will give you one out of his stash..

 

Just trying to have some fun and keep the post at the top.....I'll go away now and come back in Nov....with the Meet & Greet times for Friday and Saturday in spot #910.

 

Are you sure there will be enough to go around? The 6 or 7 cases usually don't last long. I do need to put zerk fittings on the Hudson's trunk hinges, too much up and down.

 

How many of you were going when it was held at the school across from the LaPlaya Hotel, the headquarters. I went every year from 1986-2002. It was a family deal for us. Good weather (usually) and a great Thanksgiving buffet available at the HOJO next door. The cruzin (parked a couple chairs on the grass in front of the LaPlaya) was great and yes finally the Antique drags on historic Ormond Beach. My boys grew up...got married...grandkids...priorities changed. My wife and I talk about going every year but wind up eating turkey at one of the kids.

 

Dont leave us hotrodlady!!!

 

We'll be back again this year. I try to see everything in one day, and end up missing a bunch. Hafta stay overnight this time. Gonna get a "BOOT" for one of my wheels though, I kept finding my car in a different spot from where I left it!

 

I can remember the "old days" too, Frank. It sure has grown since then, eh?
I think you oughta load up the little lady and come on down for "old times sake"
I have only missed 2 years since '91. It's one of 3 events I try not to miss each year, along with the James Dean Run/Ducktail Run and the NHRA Hot Rod Reunion.

 

I don't drink, so that's one more you'll have.

 

Make sure you let us know, we wanna seeya.

 

I might not be there, might go spend Thanksgiving with my kid in Chicago.

 

There are usually some waters and sodas as well. You could stop by for some sort of cold refreshment.

 

I will be there working show as usual. I have again this year arranged a HAMB club parking area.It is very easy to find . If you can find the lake just go to the east end of it. Same place as last three years.I have room for about twenty car's. PM me for detail's.Do to the fact that alot of club parking was takin away to make room for auction car's space is at a premium.Because of that I cant do this for free this year. I will need ten$ per car.I dont make a dime on this and have handled it for 5 yr's for free. Cant do it when were turning club's away because all spot's are sold. PM me for detail's Gregg

 

Wish my coupe would be done...Ill deff. be lookin for the hamb area!

 

But if you know what you are doing, You don't have to ask for directions!!!

 

I wish mine was done! I will be there, want to meet some of you guys.

 

Btt
